I don't know about Homeseer. I use Misterhouse. Misterhouse is written in perl and most things that you need to setup in Misterhouse, you write a perl module. There are many examples to cut and paste from. There is also an excellent mailing list for any help needed.

I use Homeseer - can't speak to "Mr House" except that the name is almost as bad as "Homeseer." Homeseer works very well w/ the Audrey. You can use the built-in HS web i/f and/or create your own server-side asp pages. It's simple to write your own host-side pages and call the HS event handler (posts to the web server). There is a dedicated forum for "touch screen" users on the HS message board, w/ many Audrey-related tips. There is also a set of scripts that provide the HS i/f to some of Audrey's tricks (send_message, setLED, etc.) Have fun.
